What is the point of this "revelation"? When did Microsoft claim that windows were free in any way?

This is marketing puffery. It's an imprecise claim about the product's goodness that cannot be objectively tested.
I see a very high inflation of the word "puffery* in the recent times ;D
Duh
(I know, you watched a recent WAN show and just wanted to brag with the word puffery)
I hadn't heard of the WAN show before this comment. I learned about puffery as a kid when my parents were shopping for a car and I was very excited to inform them I had just heard on the radio that a specific dealership was the best.
